The main inspiration and starting point for the videos, choreography and visuals was the album Cosmospir (a Hic Sunt Leones release). The concert is complemented by the video-art, costiums (Dominika Bułaczynska) and butoh dance (Sylwia Hanff). It resembles an unreal sleep ritual clashing with patches of reality represented by industrial spaces and big-city noise. The intention is to transfer the audience to another, intangible dimension, emphasized by the songs in an unknown language. The music is stylistically set in experimental and avantgarde climates, with electronics and vocals processed in real time. The different parts of video-art created: Arkadiusz Rączka, Chris Dąbrowski, Gamid Ibadullajev. Scenograhy: Emil Biernacki
